Why a blog?

Well, I wasn't really sure about a blog and then a friend of mine was telling me all about her blog and she got me pretty interested. After seeing hers, (which is darling Natalie) I decided that a blog could be kinda fun! But my next thought was, besides me..... WHO CARES!!!! Who cares what my day is like, what my kids do and say. DUH???????? I just moved away from my entire family. They no longer get to see my kids everyday. They no longer get to watch them grow up and see what they are doing. So, what better way for them to get to stay up on my family than through my blog. Plus, I thought, since I am SO bad at keeping a journal, this could be like my journal. It's definetely more exciting than keeping a written journal. So... let's see how this goes!!!!
